Video: Everybody Dies, But Not Everybody Lives

July 11, 2016 By Scott "Q" Marcus

I’ve seen a few of Prince Ea’s videos and found them inspirational.

I found this one yesterday and wanted to share this message. How often do we hold back and not reach for what we really want? I know for me, the answer is “too often.”

Who is YOU?

July 6, 2015 By Scott "Q" Marcus

Who is YOU?

(That’s not a grammatical error.)

When asked, “Who is (your name),” what do you say?

Do you reply with your name? Do you say “I’m a man (or woman).” Is your response, “mother, father, son, daughter”? Do you label yourself by what you do for a living or your religion or even where you live/

Again, who is YOU?

We are incredibly complex beings and we have many different labels.

For example, I can be “man” at the same time as I’m “happy.” I can be a “resident of northern California” while “native of Detroit” and both are equally true. I can be “a person of faith” and I can be “doubtful” in the same place. I can be “overweight” and I can be “proud” together.

Why does this matter?

Habits Happen bumpersticker

In reality, habits do not just “happen.”

They are the end result of a chain consisting of thoughts which lead to feelings which lead to actions. If you wish to change the actions long-term, you must change your internal dialog first. [Read more…]

Believe in Yourself as Much as you Believe in Others

August 25, 2014 By Scott "Q" Marcus

hands-reaching-outWe are incredibly supportive of our friends and our family.

When they doubt themselves, we are easily able to inspire, encourage, and invigorate them up with all sorts of compliments. As importantly, we truly believe what we’re telling them too.

Yet, when we are talking about ourselves we are not as good of a friend.
